    No, the ussr did not fund paramilitary nazi groups formed from the remnants of former SS troops, or anything similar.

      They always funded European left-wing parties at least until the fall of URSS. There were even cultural exchanges with European politicians going to Moscow. It was never a secret! The same thing is still happening today with some parties openly pro-Putin (at least until the invasion of Ukraine).

        Some cultural exchanges and auxiliary funding is not remotely the same as arming and connecting former SS troops to create clandestine paramilitary terror cells, like wtf are we comparing here.

                I recommend providing sources next time youre making the comperison between nazi terror cells doing pogroms and some revolutionary groups doing targeted assasinations of fascist politicians. Provide a source that the assassination of Aldo moro was financed or otherwise materially supported by the ussr or shut up. Because I found nothing of the sort.

                Either way still not remotely comparable to what the wannabe-dirlewangers did and still do:

                  Colonialism and genocide in Italy in the 70s? 🤣

                    Sounds like you have been living under a rock. Italy had already been a member of NATO by 1970, which already makes them complicit in things like the Lebensraum genocide in Palestine.

                    You claim that you are from Europe, but you are evidently very ignorant of its history.
